My Students

Our school library is a hive of activity everyday! Classes and individual students can always be found visiting the library!

Our school is a rural school in southeast Indiana.

The student population is made up of about 75% free/reduced lunch. The students in this building are a wonderful, kind, loving, giving group of young people. Our students come from a wide variety of backgrounds--single parent families, grandparents raising grandchildren, foster care, parents that are incarcerated, and parents that are unemployed.

My Project

Author/Illustrator Jeff Ebbeler will be visiting the students of Laurel School in October 2019. Our library would love to have books written and/or illustrated by Mr. Ebbeler available for our students and teachers to become familiar with his work.

The books by visiting authors and illustrators become instant favorites in our library.

The books are constantly checked out. They are among the top circulating books for the school year.

Author Visit Day is one of the best days of the school year for our students and teachers. It's the day we all look forward to and enjoy immensely Students often recall previous author/illustrator visits with great enthusiasm for the books.
